Fresh Pineapple Poached In Cinnamon Syrup Recipes

Steps:

• Peel pineapple, then quarter lengthwise. Cut out core, then cut each quarter lengthwise into 4 pieces (for a total of 16).
• Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into a 12-inch heavy skillet with tip of a paring knife, then add pod, wine, Grand Marnier, brown sugar, cinnamon stick, bay leaf, cloves, and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved.
• Add pineapple to wine mixture and return to a boil. Remove from heat. Cool pineapple in liquid, about 1 hour. Transfer pineapple with a slotted spoon to a 4-sided sheet pan, then boil liquid until reduced to about 2/3 cup, about 35 minutes.
• Preheat broiler.
• Sprinkle pineapple with granulated sugar, then broil 3 to 4 inches from heat until slightly caramelized and lightly charred in spots, 10 to 15 minutes (watch carefully and remove any pineapple that colors more quickly). Serve drizzled with syrup.

Steps:

• In a fine sieve let the yogurt drain, covered and chilled, for 40 minutes. While the yogurt is draining, in a small saucepan combine the sugar, the cinnamon, and 3/4 cup water and boil the mixture for 5 minutes. Stir in the pineapple, simmer the mixture, covered, for 8 minutes, and transfer the pineapple with a slotted spoon to a metal bowl. Boil the syrup until it is reduced to about 1/2 cup, add the rum, and boil the syrup for 1 minute. Pour the syrup over the pineapple and chill the mixture, set in a larger bowl of ice and cold water.
• Divide the yogurt cheese between 2 bowls and spoon the pineapple mixture over it.

Steps:

• In a roomy one gallon pot place peeled apples, vanilla, cinnamon and sugar. Cover with water then bring to a simmer over medium to low heat for twenty minutes. Once the apples are soft enough, pierce with a knife. Remove the apples with a slotted spoon to a holding plate. Reduce poaching liquid to a light syrup, then place the apples back in sauce pot and hold on warm until ready to serve.
• Use four small serving bowls with matching underliner plates then place one apple in the middle of each bowl. Pour warm syrup over each apple and then garnish cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans.

Steps:

• Prepare Ahead: Peel the large pineapple and cut in half, then into quarters down length, then cut out and discard the central core. Roughly chop then whizz in a food processor until it forms a rough purée. Tip into a bowl and stir in the lime juice, sugar and coconut cream. Put the bowl in the freezer for 2-3 hours until set about 3cm/1in in from the edges, then remove and whisk to break down the large ice crystals. Freeze for a further 1-2 hours until firm.
• Meanwhile, peel the medium pineapple and thinly slice. Tip the sugar, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons water into a pan. Gently heat until the sugar has dissolved, then boil until it forms a light syrup. Add the pineapple and cook for 2-3 minutes, turning them, until they start to intensify in colour, remove from the heat and cool.
• On the day: half an hour before serving, transfer the ice to the fridge. Serve with the pineapple and scatter with mint leaves and cinnamon from the poaching liquid.
